Full review

Saalbach is a resort not may Americans know about. It is tucked away in its own valley not far from the beautiful resort of Zell am See. The skiing here is some of the best in the Alps. The ski area spreads itself along both sides of the valley. This gives you a variety of ski conditions due to the exposure of the sun. Keep this in mind when skiing the “ski circus” of Saalbach.
With fifteen Gondolas and a multitude of lifts, there is always a new adventure to be found on the mountain. The resort has beautiful chalet style restaurants scattered through out the mountain.
Skiing is not the only thing to do at Saalbach. The night life is what is to be expected at an Austrian ski resort – fun and unforgetable. With your ski pass you can ride the gondola in the evening at Hinterglemm for free to take advantage of a their rodel run. If you are looking for even more speed take a spin at the ice track with go-carts fitted with spiked tires.
Saalbach is a resort that you could come back to time and time again.
